Kiln Accessories

It takes a lot of trial and error to get fusing down
to a science. Don't burn yourself up over it!
The products listed on this page will help to make your firing times
execute smoothly.

ZYP Boron Nitride Mold Release

The product formerly known as MR-97.
ZYP works wonderfully as a ceramic or stainless steel mold release. It's easy to
use, simply spray this aerosol on your slumping or casting mold at room
temperature (wear a dust mask and spray outside only for safety). Easy spray-on
formula provides a uniform slick coating to produce a flawlessly smooth and
easily released project.

13-ounce container will prime about 20 medium sized molds. You may need to touch
up the areas where the glass touches the mold after 4 or 5 firings. Be
sure to periodically brush off previous applications with a nylon brush to
prevent build up.

Sold in 13 oz canisters. Note: This item
cannot be shipped via air or USPS.

ZYP Boron Nitride Mold Release - Water Based

The artist helper formerly known as MR-97.
ZYP works wonderfully as a ceramic mold release. It's easy to use - shake
vigorously and use the trigger to spray on
your slumping or casting mold at room temperature. The easy spray-on
formula provides a slick coating to produce a flawlessly smooth and easily released project.
This water-based paint will take longer to dry than solvent-based paint. This glass release is a non-hazardous, non-flammable
product, thus allowing much lower shipping/handling costs. Just like the
aerosol, this new easy-to-use trigger sprayer allows application of boron
nitride paint onto most any non-glazed (i.e., bisque) surface, substrate or
mold. It is not recommended for stainless steel as the sprayer might give an uneven application.

12-ounce bottle will prime about 20 medium sized molds. You may need to
touch up the areas where the glass touches the mold after 4 or 5 firings.
Be sure to periodically brush off previous applications with a nylon brush
to prevent build up.

Sold in 12 oz bottles.
Note: This item can be shipped via USPS!

Techniglass MO-RE Boron Nitride Mold Release

The premier boron nitride mold release made especially for the fusing glass
enthusiast and professional.

Radically Different
Glass is the most difficult application to release, that’s why Techniglass has formulated MO-RE specifically
for the art glass industry. With a non-flammable solvent base, MO-RE produces an effortless release for a wide array of molds.

Reduced Prep Time
Application and cleanup are simple compared to brush-on primers; MO-RE sprays on quick and evenly with self-leveling capabilities.
No exposed mold or mold sticking to glass piece.

Flawless Release
Eliminate post-fire work with MO-RE’s unique composition, allowing glass to move freely during the firing process. When boron nitride release spray is
applied evenly, each mold will release clean with no spiked edges or film left on glass. No need to grind off rough edges!

Reduce Cost per Application
MO-RE can be used sparingly, due to its self-leveling component one will never need to worry of an uneven surface or bare mold. Only a light coating is necessary
– by reducing the amount applied to each mold, less mold release is used during the application process.

Sold in 12 oz and 8 oz cans.
Note: This item cannot be shipped via USPS!

PAPYROS Kiln Shelf Paper is a ceramic-based paper specially formulated for glass fusing. When placed between
the kiln shelf and the underside of a glass project, PAPYROS prevents the glass from sticking to the shelf during firing.
PAPYROS is available in 20.5"x20.5" sheets or in a space-saving 20.5" wide,
82 foot long Craft Roll that comes packaged in a handy dispensing box. Cut only what you need!

Because of its sturdy composition, PAPYROS provides
excellent glass/kiln shelf separation on the first use, and
may be re-used in subsequent firings, as well. How long post-fired PAPYROS retains its integrity depends on the type of glass used
on the project underside (Opal vs. Transparent), the nature of
the project (volume/construction), as well as the final fusing
temperature (degree of glass movement in the kiln). Clean
up is simple via a studio spatula or using your favorite HEPA shop vacuum..

Bullseye THINFIRE Shelf Paper

This heat-resistant, light weight ceramic impregnated paper,
provides excellent separation between kin shelf and glass in kiln
firing applications up to 1600°F. Paper is .008" thick. Thinfire has
numerous benefits when compared to more conventional ceramic fiber
material. Compared to conventional kiln washes, Thinfire reduces
shelf preparation time and improves surface release quality. A
single layer of paper will prevent molten glass from sticking to
your shelf at full fuse. Sheets are 20" x 20".
